From harold@codeweavers.com Sun Mar 14 06:16:00 2004 From: harold@codeweavers.com (Harold L Hunt II) Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2004 06:16:00 -0000 Subject: New packages: libXft, libXft2, libXft-devel, and libXft1 Message-ID: <4053F820.5050902@codeweavers.com> The libXft, libXft2, and libXft-devel packages have been added to the Cygwin distribution. These packages are a replacement for the Xft libraries distributed in the XFree86-bin package (those libraries will be removed shortly). In addition, libXft1 has been provided for applications that require it; note that this package is just a tarball of cygXft-1.dll from a build of Cygwin/X, so it is unlikely to be updated and is only provided for compatibility (if any existing app even uses it). Description =========== The current version of Xft (2.0) provides a client-side font API for X applications. It uses Fontconfig to select fonts and the X protocol for rendering them. When available, Xft uses the Render extension to accelerate text drawing. When Render is not available, Xft uses the core protocol to draw client-side glyphs. This provides completely compatible support of client-side fonts for all X servers. -- Harold Hunt To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.

Changes ======= 1) General - After about 60 hours of 16 hour per day effort, the build has finally been scripted entirely. Package has also been scripted and is now "easy" to perform; no external scripts or processes are required anymore for packaging. Source packages are also generated. The source packages listed above cover all of the packages in distribution (e.g. 'xserv' contains source for 'nest', 'vfb', and 'xserv', while 'man' contains source for 'html' and 'man., etc.). The source packages also trim nearly 40 MB of the 60 MB of source since we do not need nor use most of that source (including hardcopies of documentation files). The total source size is around 25 MB. I'll document this more later, but to perform a build, grab the source packages listed above, read /usr/X11R6/share/doc/Cygwin/XFree86-base-4.3.0.README for a list of packages required for building, install those required packages, then 'cd /usr/src && cp xc/CYGWIN-PATCHES/XFree86-4.3.0.sh . && ./XFree86-4.3.0.sh all > all.log 2>&1'. Depending on your system the build will complete in 1.5 to 12 hours (e.g. my Athlon 1.2 GHz with 512 MB RAM and 7200 RPM HD finishes in just under 2 hours). Could somebody please try this so that I have some verificiation that all of my efforts have paid off? I have successfully performed a build from the source packages on my system, but I want to make sure there is nothing unique about my system that I have overlooked. (Harold L Hunt II) 2) General - Add README files to /usr/X11R6/share/doc/Cygwin for each package, these files should have an accurate list of the files contained within each package. Add the setup.hint files for each package to one of the src packages so that these files are available for others to review and update. (Harold L Hunt II) 3) General - The process of making sure that Cygwin/X does not depend on any files that exist only on my system is now complete. Show of hands: how many of you figured out that I was working on this goal? :) I was really starting to get nervous about what would happen to Cygwin/X if my system ever died... and I also needed to open up the build and packaging process in case someone ever needs or wants to take it over for me. (Harold L Hunt II) 4) Next steps - Now that the build is scripted I will be making a push to get our releases built from the xorg tree on freedesktop.org. We will be moving to that tree as quickly as possible to minimize the differences between what we are distributing and what our developers are working on. (Harold L Hunt II) 5) Source packages - Note: These source packages are not entirely like other Cygwin source packages. Most distinctly, they do not distribute the original source packages and a diff against those source packages since we *do* modify binary files within the source package; instead, we distribute the current source only. I spent about 12 hours working on a diff system before I realized that it was prone to breakage, took eons to process, and introduced a dependency on the scripts and process I used to generate the pruned-down original source packages. You are free to speculate privately on whether this was a good decision or not, but asking me to re-evaluate it in public will send a strong message to my cousin Vinnie that he should come pay you a brief visit. ;) (Harold L Hunt II) 6) bin, html, man, prog - Removed libXft files; these files are now available via the libXft* packages. Note: We still have to build libXft during the build of Cygwin/X since there is not currently support for using an installed libXft. (Harold L Hunt II) 7) bin - cygOSMesa-4.dll doesn't appear to be getting built anymore. I could not find any other programs or libraries that were dependent upon it, so this should not be a problem. Please report any problems if this file is reported as missing by any programs that you use. (Harold L Hunt II) 8) base - This is a real package now, it includes a base readme for the system. It also has a src package that covers etc, lib, and parts of prog (though prog has its own src package as well). (Harold L Hunt II) 9) xserv - More complete changelog to follow tomorrow. For now, know that Earle's tray icon and preferences file changes, Benjamin Riefenstahl's boxed X icon (2nd icon in XWin.exe), and Jehan Bing's almost latest X icon (1st icon in XWin.exe) with alpha channel support are all in this release. I just realized that I did not get Jehan's x_test8.ico in this release, so I will have to make another release soon. -- Harold Hunt To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.

Description =========== The xterm program is a terminal emulator for the X Window System. It provides DEC VT102 and Tektronix 4014 compatible terminals for programs that can't use the window system directly. This version implements ISO/ANSI colors using the "new" color model (i.e., background color erase). It also implements most of the control sequences for VT220. This package replaces the version of xterm that was available in pieces of the XFree86-bin, XFree86-etc, XFree86-html, and XFree86-man packages. xterm has been removed from these packages in the latest revision. xterm-185 is 11 releases newer than xterm-174 that was previously distributed in the aforementioned packages.

The nature of the fix was to stop calling XPeekIfEvent since it will block until the specified type of event is seen. Instead, we call XSync to flush output events and wait for them to be processed, then we do our own little loop with a call to select() using a timeout of 3 seconds from when we started (the timeout is adjusted after each call to select()). This should alleviate problems with XPeekIfEvent not returning. Finally, since we can detect whether the SelectionNotify event has arrived now, I added code to paste NULL to the Win32 clipboard if the X11 application never returns any useful clipboard data; this should prevent Win32 applications from freezing when there are problems pasting from X11 to Win32.

From huntharo@msu.edu Sun Mar 28 19:28:00 2004 From: huntharo@msu.edu (Harold L Hunt II) Date: Sun, 28 Mar 2004 19:28:00 -0000 Subject: LinuxWorld Expo - San Francisco - August 2-5, 2004 Message-ID: <40672708.5020501@msu.edu> I will most likely be attending at least part of the LinuxWorld Expo in San Francisco coming up in the beginning of August: http://www.linuxworldexpo.com/linuxworldny/V40/index.cvn?ID=10029 There will be a lot of X folks there (most likely Jim Gettys, Keith Packard, Egbert Eich (I hope), and more); I estimate the number at over 10. We will be having discussions and there will most likely be time to grab dinner or lunch as a group a few times and possibly even drink a few beers for those with proof of age. :) I'm going to be living in San Jose from the end up May, which means I'll be passing through Sunnyvale, Palo Alto (I think), Stanford, and the southern part of San Francisco on my drive up. Contact me privately if the only reason you couldn't make it would be because you have no way to get up there for the day (I'll most likely be driving home each night that I go up). Alternatively, if there are a lot of us maybe we can all ride the train together... I think there is one that goes up to San Francisco from San Jose. Mark your calenders if you are interested and start looking into a cheap way to get there... I'd love to see as many Cygwin/X folks there as possible, especially developers that can come to any meetings and have a say in the future of X if they want to.

(Lev Bishop) 2) windialogs.c - Check for hand cursor not present (pre-desktop update W95/NT). (Earle F. Philhower III) 3) winmultiwindowwndproc.c - Don't set focus to windows with overrideRedirect flag is set. (Takuma Murakami) 4) winlayer.c - Remove dead file. (Harold L Hunt II - CodeWeavers) 5) Imakefile, win.h, winrandr.c, winscrinit.c - Put in place a framework for supporting RandR. RRSetScreenConfig was added to Xserver/randr/randr.c to allow setting the current resolution from within the X Server (previously it was only something that X apps could do). There is a little bit of work to be done before this will work, but it compiles fine now and LAYER has been removed since it is no longer needed for RandR. (Harold L Hunt II - CodeWeavers) 6) winclipboardwrappers.c - Clear ownership flag of the other monitored selection if an X application is taking ownership of a selection, which might help to prevent clipboard related pauses.
